v70 2002 brake light faliure

Post by rusty1980 »

i have a 2002 v70 and the other day while changing a fuse for my central locking i found that my two main brake lights had stopped working yet the eye level one still works so i went to volvo to ask they said it could be fuse or relay or bulbs so i`ve checked them all and put new ones in but it still hasn`t stopped the problem so now i`m lost as what to do next before paying a furtune for volvo to take a look any ideas please
